About
Anna Silverton is an established ceramic artist, renowned for her exceptional wheel-thrown porcelain. Anna is based in Ramsgate in Kent, where she has her workshop and home.
Within her work, she explores demanding shapes that reveal the strength and simultaneous delicacy of porcelain. She constantly develops ceramic glazes and focuses on the interplay between glaze colour and texture since these profoundly influence our perception of shape, and consequently can transform something beautiful into something extraordinary.
The piece she has donated is wheel-thrown in porcelain. The glazes applied are layered using shades of blue and glossy translucent black. The deep transition from dark blue to black, highlighted by a fine white rim, echoes a midnight sky.
